War Photo Limited a must see for visitors to
Dubrovnik, Croatia and must have photo books for all!
War Photo Limited operates a gallery in the scenic
Croatian Adriatic city of Dubrovnik, one of the most beautiful cities on the
planet. What these exhibits bring is stark reality that most people never get
to experience in their lifetime.
I was fortunate enough to see Ron Haviv’s Blood and
Honey exhibit when I was there in 2005 and was even luckier to stumble across their
website that features photographers and exhibits focusing not only on the
Balkans but other trouble spots such as Chechnya, Palestine and conflict
hotspots from around the globe.
The site features exhibits, upcoming exhibits,
limited edition photos and very reasonably priced photography books.

BROKEN LIGHTS
of yugoslavia
photographs and text by Emmanuel Ortiz
A journey through the wars that broke
the republics, broke the communities and
broke the people of the former Yugoslavia.
Emmanuel starts in Croatia visiting the
frontlines in eastern Slavonija and the
besieged city of Dubrovnik. War later
breaks out in Bosnia, Ortiz’s coverage of
Mostar, Bihaæ and the capital, Sarajevo
journeys through the lives both civilian and
combatants, their hardships, their loss.
Then on to Kosovo and its neighbouring
countries that accommodated hundreds of
thousands of expelled and fleeing Kosovo
Albanians seeking refuge from Serb security
forces.

The Scars of David
Jan Grarup
Grarup’s exhibit “The Scars of David” brings
together his award winning work from Israel
and Palestine; “The boys from Ramallah”, a
glimpse into the lives of the Palestinian youth
of the west bank town of Ramallah and “The
boys from Hebron”, a similar look at the youth
of the Israeli settlement town of Hebron.
Grarups work questions the extreme
pressure applied on the youth by violence
and fear that surrounds them. He provides
us with an insight into the conditioning of a
population at a very young age, for a conflict
that is being pass through the generations.
